Never Know What's in Store at the ReStore!

"​Even though I work in the administrative office for our Habitat affiliate, I sometimes wander into our
ReStore to help or to see the customers that come in. One of the best parts is seeing all the local people
that I know come in to shop and see what they can find in the ReStore. Sometimes helping out in the
ReStore gives me the opportunity to see what we have to offer because otherwise I don’t get the
chance! I see so many DIY projects that are possible with our furniture and the Dixie Belle paint (though
I never seem to pull the trigger to do them), but I still get so many ideas!

Recently I purchased a small white bookshelf for my kids, that I plan on painting with some of the cool
colors that we offer from Dixie Belle. When I see what one of our volunteers can do when she
repurposes stools, benches, etc., it gives me so much inspiration! That is one of the best things about
thrift shopping, all the different possibilities of repurposing and making something that used to be
someone else’s into something for yourself!

You never know what you can find in our ReStore and every time we get something new, I can’t wait to
see what it might be!"
